"What do you think of my new hat," asked Ari, her smile rivaling the sun, "it goes with my new canary dress and matching shoes. Isn't the plumage wonderful?"
"I pity the peacock that lost its tail feathers just so they could dye it yellow to decorate your hat," teased Eileen.
Juri smirked, "You're just jealous that I saw it first."
Both women collapsed into a fit of giggles on the bench. Elyon was pleased to see Ari laughing and having a wonderful time, being around Eileen boosted her confidence and made her come out of her shell even more.
He would do anything to taste her lips with his own and kiss that delightful smirk off her face. Sometimes he wondered if Ari thought he was a eunuch. It was hard for him to focus when she would occasionally touch him so innocently.
